Features:
- Three position switch to select stock operation (recommended for night driving), user-defined height, and "snake eyes"
- Two versions, "Standard" which is pictured below, and "Remote" which has the switch on an extension to mount on whatever you wish. Please let me know which one youd like.
- Can select virtually any position in the popups range to rise to, very fine adjustment capabilities with the smooth dial
- Defined physical "click" you can feel in the center of the dial, so while making adjustments you do not need to be visually focused on the knob
- Discrete black box design for easy mounting, measures 4"x2"x1"
- Metal plate on lid is removable (as can be seen in the video), but recommended for mounting with double stick tape.

Whats in The Box:
- The Control Unit
- 5 feet of connected signal wire for easy mounting
- 3 feet of ground wire
- Crimp on ring connector for ground
- (Optional) Remote switch with 3 feet of wire
- Instructions

Things to Consider:
I DO NOT have control of the individual height or speed of your popups, thats all in the motors, most pairs should raise at close to the same speed.

When the car is on, the popups will rise slightly higher, which I'm assuming is because of the extra few volts supplied to the motors, thus making them spin faster, so you might want to think about the "Standard" option for easy adjustability, or mount the box somewhere easily accessible if you mind.

Theres a small quirk where the etacs resends the signal (again im assuming) when you change things quickly (ex, turn lights on with steering column switch then quickly hit the pop-up button). Dont play with the buttons and itll work fine :P

Also, There is a reason this costs less than competitors and some others cost a lot more. While I didn't cheap out on things and its an overall sturdy unit, its obviously not built like a tank. Please dont use excessive force on the knobs, switch, and wires, and it should last a good long time.

I have enough parts for 2 units
Cost is 39 dollars + 5 dollars shipping anywhere in the US.
PM me for international shipping, its usually around 14 US dollars.

Will also consider trades and partial trades (including me owing).

well, I attempted to install mine over the weekend, but right after I started searching for the harness it started raining and my garage space was limited so I had to put it off until later. Will try this week and post pics when it's all done.

I just wanted to apologize for disapearing on this, mostly to lat42, but to everyone who still wants one of these. Life got crazy (all good things) and is just now starting to settle down (even better things). I just want everyone to know that I didnt do this project for the money. I'm not even sure if I came out positive when it was all said and done. I just did it because I knew I didnt want to pay 120 bucks for something so simple, and knew that you guys didnt want to either. I probably could optimize the cost a bit more, get some PCB's made to make it more worth my time (upping the cost by ALOT, but whatever), but regardless its just not in my priorities to make these right now.

I think im going to release the schematics, part numbers, and some pictures, and let you guys build them yourselves. You only need a soldering iron and an hour or so, its very straight forward. I'll be working with lat42 as well given his established 1g products.

Sound like a plan?

PS: To everyone paying attention to my aftermarket ECU project...it went very well, but is nothing near a completed product. Maybe some day I'll pick it back up again, and i've come A LONG way in my skills and ability since then, but it seems like other projects have been making some headway, and I'm happy about that.

Also, i am no longer an indepedent vendor here, and that will probably stay that way.

I always wanted one, so releasing the schematics would be awesome. Please do.


Thanks!
